Tesco Refuses to Serve Soldier to not Offend Muslims

This has been making rounds on social media:



Oh, but wait a second, there is no Tesco store on Oak Street London. That's odd... http://www.tesco.com/store-locator/uk/

Ah I get it now! Someone just made up some random rubbish and people were foolish enough to just believe it as given without bothering to critically fact-check the claim. Oak Street was chosen on purpose, because there is no Tesco store there, if you believe it then you're just been expertly trolled.

Don't be a fool and spend two minutes to verify something before taking it at it's word.

I hadn't heard about his. Good for you for checking it out.

Having a great giggle memory..........................

I was in my early teens . . I came home and told my mother one of my friends said . . . "if you don't take a certain action with a certain condition, you will go crazy." My mother said that it was an "old wives tale, not based in fact." Well one girl seemed "crazy" to me, so I argued with my mother and said there must be some truth with it. . . .

She said, "There is the phone book. There is the phone. If you do not believe me call a doctor."

to me the question becomes; is this the work of a single individual or was it produced by an organization?

and lol @ mareeka; i remember those emails!

for me it was emails anyway, i never got a real letter

No letter or email was involved, in the example. The old wives tales that mothers taught daughters. My friends at school.

ah ok

well

lol

this is akward

:whistles:

yes, compassion toward awkwardness . . . :blush:

ummmm the condition was related to hair care :evil: (this icon looks like bows to me lol . . so be it now hair symbol lol)

I did not put in any specifics on that; because, it was in my mind inconsequential to the parallel I was making to the OP.

Hopefully you hadnt posted about it on Facebook yet...

:lol:...

My wife has taken it as a personal crusade to stop the spread of ignorance on facebook, and 'snope-ifies' each claim of a similar theme...

Although, she did miss the March Palindrome thing going around... This is in American date language, lol...

Something like:

"March has several days this year that are the same forward and backward...
4-11-14 - 41114
4-12-14 - 41214
4-13-14 - 41314
4-14-14 - 41414
4-15-14 - 41514
Pretty neat, huh?"

@Mareeka

@Jestor

also ive never been good with dates, i went to the prom with my sister and still came home alone

as a rule i try to research everything i can....sometimes i forget...

i bet they chose tesco because of some of the events in the company's past with "discrimination".....
